Poll Topics - YOU suggest (Free T-Shirt)

**john** · November 12th, 2008, 09:52 AM

Our last few polls have been rather popular and I have finally figured out how to host them here on the forum... so... we need questions. The questions should be in a multiple choice format with between 4 and 10 answers. Leave your ideas as a comment below and we will send a free gCaptain t-shirt to the person who's question we use first.
The best questions we will also run on the blog and homepage.

I'm curious to see what this group is made up of. What percentage are engineers, how many are deck?

I thought of another... Should John switch to a new, more organized forum format like vBulliten? It seems to me that the forums have sort of jump started since you banned guests and it'd be nice to be able to find what I want a little bit easier.

After a day and a half trying to get my stupid Windows machine to run again:
Windows or Mac?

Capt_A, I think you answered your own question!
I run a mac for everything but very few of our visitors do. Here are the 30 day forum stats from our log file:

There were some varing answers...Maybe an equipment poll and the reasons why the individual chooses this particular brand might be informative... What if someone picked up some info on here ,that later on turned out to save their or someone elses life..?.pretty cool.
